Abstract

This paper has to do with a theoretical review about the empathy and its expressions through the interaction among human beings in everyday life. The interdisciplinary subject guides us through several theoretical frames to analyze structural brain systems where the empathy appears according to the neurological discourse, until we take some social and cultural arguments which describe how the actual societies have created the processes of nullification of empathy, showed in the everyday life behavior among the citizens.
